ps3stor_region: invalid option creating hdd region

**gogetasaiy** · 06-19-2011,12:42 PM

hello, i'm continuously getting the error

ps3stor_region: invalid option --8

or

ps3stor_region: invalid option --1

with the script create_hdd_region.sh

with 3.55 otheros++

on a 256 fat console.... CECHG04

have you some idea??

Did this tools beep twice when you installed them? Because that's the first script ran by petitboot and the ps3stor_region is declared as a variable associated with that same region.

Are you doing it from petitboot? are you chmodding it first?

**gogetasaiy** · 06-20-2011,01:14 AM

yes, until this step all tools beep twice.
yes, i'm doing this from shell petitboot, and I chmodded the script.

I'm not sure then i've only got a 16mb nor and it worked first time for me i used chmod 755

I got the "--1" every time. I was stupid and used the xmb menu instead of the recovery menu to restore. idk if that was the problem but after I restored from the recovery menu everything went ok.

excuse me, can you explain better this situation?

you mean you restored with recovery menu after the initial installation of CF otheros++ , the second step???

and you put again in factory service mode the ps3 as following
"Press and hold the power button on the PS3 it will power on then power off.
When it's off press and hold the power button again until you hear two consecutive beeps."

and from there you recovered the system??

or you mean something else ??

**gogetasaiy** · 06-20-2011,10:22 AM

yes! after running the restore in recovery mode it worked!!!

**Redblade20XX** · 06-20-2011,12:18 PM

Just another question, did you use gitbrew's first method in attempting to install OtherOS++ before the newer one?

Just to clarify:

1. install ps3 OFW 3.55 from xmb(or any method should work)
2. install 3.55 otheros++ cfw using this method

1. Turn off ps3
2. Hold power button down, the system will turn on then turn off again
3. Repress and hold until you hear 2 consecutive beeps (you will actually hear 3 beeps, 1 right after it turns on, then another 2)
4. you will be prompted to plug in your controller with a usb and press the ps button.
5. Then select the "restore ps3 system" from the list.
6. after it restarts, everything else should be good

btw i didn't use the old otheros++ method but it shouldn't cause any problems
